Cost of network downtime per hour for Indian mid-market
₹5.6 L
per hour of branch downtime in BFSI and mid-market India when outdoor camera or yard Wi-Fi fails because the AP brand was sized for indoor coverage. Gartner puts the global average near $5,600 per minute. A Cambium outdoor design with the correct sector antenna pattern removes that exposure for the equipment life.

What cambium networks india delivers for Indian businesses
Cambium Networks in India means cnPilot outdoor and indoor access points, ePMP point-to-multipoint wireless, PTP point-to-point microwave links, and the cnMaestro cloud console for unified outdoor wireless management. Cambium Networks in India means cnPilot outdoor and indoor access points, ePMP point-to-multipoint wireless for last-mile and CCTV backhaul, PTP point-to-point microwave for building-to-building links, and the cnMaestro cloud console for everything. Cambium ships through India distributors with a ConnectedPartner installer network. We deploy Cambium for outdoor campus Wi-Fi, manufacturing yard coverage, WISP and rural-broadband rollouts, CCTV-camera backhaul over wireless, and hospitality property-wide Wi-Fi where running fibre is impractical.
An official Cambium Networks site overview lists the full SKU range. We pair Cambium Networks with active gear from HPE Aruba or Fortinet based on the switch and AP brief from the network team.
What sits inside cambium networks india
Three product layers worth understanding before the site-survey call. Pick the parts that fit, not the brochure that looks busiest.
cnPilot e510 outdoor Wi-Fi 5 and XV2-2 Wi-Fi 6
cnPilot e510 IP67-rated outdoor APs for parking, yard, and stadium coverage. The XV2-2 indoor and outdoor Wi-Fi 6 model handles mid-density occupancy. cnMaestro cloud runs onboarding, RF planning, and the captive portal. Right pick for a manufacturing yard, a logistics warehouse with outdoor staging, or a stadium where Cat 6 to every AP location is not feasible.
Sirius Star runs the site survey, the rack and tray design, procurement against the Cambium Networks India distributor, install with the certified field team, and the post-install validation. Change requests go to care@siriusstar.in.
Price on Request, per AP plus cnMaestro X subscription per AP per year
ePMP 3000 point-to-multipoint backhaul
ePMP 3000 5 GHz access point with up to 16 connected client modules for last-mile broadband, IP-camera backhaul across a sprawling industrial site, or temporary event coverage. Right pick for a WISP serving rural pincode clusters or a logistics yard where the IP cameras sit 800 metres from the NVR.
Price on Request, per AP plus client modules plus install
PTP 670 microwave point-to-point
PTP 670 licence-exempt 5 GHz microwave point-to-point for building-to-building links up to 245 Mbps. Right pick when a hospital campus has a satellite OPD block 1.2 km away and a fibre dig is blocked by the BMC road-cut permission queue.
Price on Request, per link pair plus antennas plus install
Cambium vs Ubiquiti vs Aruba Instant On vs MikroTik
Cambium wins on outdoor wireless engineering, PTP and PMP licence-exempt point-to-multipoint, and cnMaestro cloud parity for indoor plus outdoor plus backhaul on one console. Right pick when the deployment leans outdoor, when wireless backhaul replaces fibre, or when a single cloud console must cover indoor APs plus outdoor PTP links.
HPE Aruba and Fortinet are the two cross-stack alternatives we deploy most. Ubiquiti UniFi wins on the lowest indoor AP price point and the popular UniFi Controller. The outdoor and backhaul story is weaker and the support model is community-led. Right pick for a small office or a hostel where the budget is tight and the operator runs the controller themselves.
Aruba Instant On wins on the cleanest indoor SMB cloud console and zero-touch provisioning. Outdoor coverage and licence-exempt backhaul are not Instant On’s territory. Right pick for a small office that cares about HPE Aruba brand assurance and India service depth.
MikroTik wins on rock-bottom CapEx for ISPs and the RouterOS depth for the technical operator. The learning curve is steep and the cnMaestro-style cloud console is missing. Right pick for a regional WISP with strong RouterOS skills. We deploy all four based on the venue, the indoor-outdoor mix, and the operator team’s RF skill depth.
How the Cambium Networks rollout and support register runs in India
Four phases. The site survey is free. The written design returns within four working hours. The install runs with our engineering team plus the OEM service partner where the warranty needs it. Post-install change requests run through care@siriusstar.in and WhatsApp on +91 91375 93228.
Site survey and traffic profile
The survey walks the outdoor coverage zones, the yard or campus perimeter, the building roof line for PTP links, and the indoor AP density floors. We map the sector AP placement, the PTP line-of-sight clearance, the cnMaestro subscription scope, and the captive portal compliance plan.
Survey
Design and BOM
The design produces the Cambium BOM, the sector antenna pattern plan, the ePMP frequency reuse map, the PTP link budget, and the cnMaestro X subscription plan per AP per year. The captive portal template is filled at this stage.
Design
Certified install and validation
The ConnectedPartner certified field team runs the install. Every PTP link gets a spectrum-analyser channel check. Every outdoor AP gets a coverage validation with a handheld signal tester. cnMaestro onboarding runs through the cloud claim code workflow.

Where Cambium Networks fits best in India
Cambium anchors four industry profiles in India. Manufacturing yard and warehouse outdoor coverage. WISP and rural-broadband last-mile. CCTV-camera wireless backhaul. Hospitality property-wide outdoor Wi-Fi.
Manufacturing yard and warehouse outdoor coverage leans on cnPilot e510 and XV2-2 outdoor APs because forklifts and yard tractors carry handheld scanners that drop traffic the moment the AP sector switches over poorly. Cambium’s sector antennas hold the handheld session through cell-edge motion.
WISP and rural-broadband last-mile leans on ePMP 3000 5 GHz with the 16 client modules per AP, the cnMaestro cloud, and the spectrum-analyser tool that finds clean channels in noisy unlicensed bands. The buyer is usually a regional ISP doing 200 to 5,000 subscribers per tower.
CCTV-camera wireless backhaul leans on PTP 670 or ePMP 3000 because a sprawling industrial estate has cameras at the perimeter fence that need a steady 4 to 25 Mbps each back to the NVR room. Cambium QoS keeps the camera stream stable when other yard traffic spikes.
Hospitality property-wide outdoor Wi-Fi leans on cnPilot e510 across resort grounds, beach blocks, and outdoor restaurants because guest expectation now includes the pool deck and the buggy ride. ClearPass-style guest portal compliance with the Ministry of Electronics and IT ISP licence terms runs on cnMaestro’s built-in captive portal.
When Cambium Networks should pair with active networking and DLP
A Cambium Networks install solves one layer. Two adjacent layers usually need a separate decision. The active wired and wireless layer where the brand is not always a fit, and the data-loss prevention layer at the endpoint.
For the active layer pair Cambium Networks with HPE Aruba CX switches and access points when the buyer wants the single Aruba Central console. Pair with Fortinet FortiSwitch and FortiAP when the security posture leads and the buyer already runs FortiGate. Pair with Cato Networks SASE when the branch count is above 20 and the buyer wants security-led SASE without per-branch firewalls.
For the endpoint data-loss prevention layer pair the network plant with Secure Data Guard, GTB DLP, or Safetica. The network carries the bits. DLP enforces what data leaves the endpoint. The two are complementary, not overlapping.
Cross-stack siblings on this site: Cisco UCS for compute, Belden structured cabling for the passive plant, and the IT Hardware Solutions hub for the broader portfolio.
Cambium Networks India FAQ
What is Cambium Networks and why does it fit Indian buyers?
Cambium Networks ships cnPilot outdoor and indoor Wi-Fi, ePMP point-to-multipoint backhaul, PTP point-to-point microwave links, and the cnMaestro cloud for unified management. For Indian buyers the value sits in three places. The IP67-rated outdoor APs survive monsoon, dust, and 50 degrees Celsius yard temperatures. Licence-exempt 5 GHz PTP replaces a fibre dig when the BMC road-cut permission is blocked. The cnMaestro cloud carries indoor APs, outdoor APs, and PTP backhaul on one dashboard. We deploy Cambium for manufacturing yards, WISP and rural-broadband, CCTV backhaul, and hospitality outdoor Wi-Fi.
What does Cambium Networks India pricing look like in 2026?
India pricing is site-survey-led. cnPilot indoor APs are per AP. cnPilot outdoor and XV2-2 outdoor models carry an IP67 premium. ePMP 3000 is per access point plus the client modules. PTP 670 is per link pair with antennas separate. cnMaestro X subscription is per AP per year. We do not publish a fixed price card because the SKU mix changes by indoor-outdoor ratio. The written 24-month TCO with the BOM, the cnMaestro scope, the spectrum plan, and the captive portal compliance returns within four working hours of the survey.
Cambium vs Ubiquiti UniFi for an outdoor yard, which one fits?
Ubiquiti UniFi wins on the lowest indoor AP price and the popular UniFi Controller. Cambium wins on the outdoor wireless engineering, the IP67 rating, and the licence-exempt PTP and PMP backhaul story. The honest call is whether the deployment leans indoor SMB (UniFi) or outdoor yard plus backhaul (Cambium). We deploy both.
How does a Cambium engagement run at Sirius Star?
A typical engagement runs in four phases. Site survey walks the outdoor coverage zones, the roof-line for PTP, and the indoor AP density. Design produces the BOM, the sector antenna plan, the ePMP frequency map, and the PTP link budget. Install runs with the ConnectedPartner field team, with every PTP link spectrum-checked and every outdoor AP signal-validated. Handover delivers the cnMaestro dashboard link, the coverage heat map, and the captive portal compliance template. Change requests go to care@siriusstar.in.
Does Cambium handle warranty replacement in India?
Cambium hardware carries a one-year limited warranty by default, extended by the Cambium Care support plans. Replacement runs through the Cambium India distributor against the warranty register filed at install. We hold the device serial list and the cnMaestro dashboard reference for every install. Standard product delivery is via standard courier partners. We map the Cambium Care support response window during the survey so the buyer knows the SLA per metro and tier-2 city.
One Cambium Networks rollout. Written 8-hour TCO. Site survey on day one.
Free site survey at the campus, plant, datacenter, or office. Port count, equipment placement, cable-route or wireless coverage map, and the warranty registration plan. Written design with the BOM, the rack layout, the validation scope, and the install calendar returned within four working hours of the survey.
P.S. the last logistics customer we surveyed had 28 outdoor cameras dropping frames at the perimeter fence because the legacy 2.4 GHz mesh choked on the loading-bay forklifts. The ePMP 3000 backhaul over 5 GHz fixed the frame loss in one weekend. Outdoor Wi-Fi is not the same problem as indoor Wi-Fi and the AP brand has to match the venue, not the catalogue.
